There are two schools of thought on this. The first is that an "Apostle" is somebody that personally saw Jesus after the resurrection, and was then a witness to that fact. This school of thought claims that there are no more apostles, other than the 12 + Paul. Because you are asking this question, I assume you are from the first school of the thought.
The second school of thought is that an apostle is what the word literally means, one sent forth with a message. In this case, they were sent forth with the gospel message. That is why in Matthew 10:1-7, in verse 1, Jesus called his 12 disciples(followers) to himself, and then sent them away as his 12 apostles (sent messengers) in verse 2. Barnabus was a sent messenger (Apostle) to spread the gospel along with Paul.
There is a lot more to say on this subject, please let me know if you need more elaboration.
The book of Acts is called The Acts of the Apostles because it primarily records the actions and teachings of the early apostles of Jesus Christ, particularly Peter and Paul, as they spread the message of Christianity after Jesus' ascension. It details their missionary journeys, preaching experiences, and interactions with early Christian communities.
There were several books of Acts written during the second century, although only Acts of the Apostles was eventually included in the New Testament. It was necessary to identify which "book of Acts", and the book now known as Acts of the Apostles was thought to be a history of the apostles after the death of Jesus.
No barnabas was not an apostle of jesus....but he was an early church apostle and went on two missionary trips with Paul....

The fifth book of the New Testament is Acts of the Apostles.In early Christianity, 'Acts' was a literary genre applied to a whole range of supposed biographical/historical books, but Acts of the Apostles was the only one of this genre considered worthy of inclusion in the New Testament. The title might imply that it covers the lives of all or most of the apostles, whereas it is largely a record, and perhaps a comparison, of Peter and Paul. Nevertheless, it is probably the one book of Acts that does cover the two most important apostles, with some brief mentions of other apostles. On that basis, this book has the best claim to its title, although it is not necessarily a historical account.
The Gospel of Luke and the Acts of the Apostles were written by Luke in the King James Version of the Bible.
